Lee Konitz (as, ts); Billy Bauer (g); Sal Mosca (p); Arnold Fishkind, Peter Ind (b); Dick Scott (dr)
This excellent recording features altoist Lee
Konitz with two separate quartets during 1956.
Either guitarist Billy Bauer or pianist Sal Mosca
are the main supporting voices in groups also
including either Arnold Fishkind or Peter Ind on
bass and Dick Scott on drums. The most unusual
aspect to the set is that on the four selections
with Mosca, Konitz switches to tenor, playing
quite effectively in a recognizable cool style.
The overall highlights of this enjoyable album are
'Everything Happens to Me', 'All Of Me', and
'Star Eyes', but all eight performances are well
played and swinging.
Scott Yannow
The introduction of Konitz?s tenor during this
period is emblematic of this. His premiere tenor
recordings on ?56?s 'Inside Hi-Fi' document how
Konitz first translated the refinements of his
alto conception to the larger horn, even on
would-be barn burners as 'Indiana? (which also
features an excellent solo by pianist Sal Mosca),
and began to apply the tenor?s capacity for
broader, bolder strokes to such fine alto
performances as the bluesy 'Cork ?N? Bib?. The
contrasts between Konitz?s alto and tenor are
well-represented on 'Kary?s Trance?, which
includes choruses on both horns; the track is also
one of guitarist Billy Bauer?s finest.
